1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

DNA methylation followed by tumor suppressor gene repression plays a critical role in the leukemia development. So, DNA methyl transferase inhibitors have great importance in treatment of theses malignancies. Harmine, A beta carboline alkaloid derivative of Peganum harmala, had shown anti- proliferative effects on leukemic cell line. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of Harmine on DNMT1 (DNA methyl transferase 1) expression in a leukemic cell line. Cell proliferation and cell cycle analysis were studied in NB4 cell line after treatment with Harmine for 72 h. DNMT1 expression in treated cells was analyzed by real time PCR. Tumor suppressor gene hypometylation and reactivation was evaluated via MSP analysis and also real time PCR. Harmine reduced cell proliferation in NB4 cell line in a time and dose-dependent manner. 102 µg/ml of Harmine was increased amount of cells in G1 Phase of cell cycle (
